  Document title if available. May be null for documents without titles.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="type" type="string | null">

  **Full document content**. Only included when `includeFullDocs=true`. Can be very large.

  <Warning>
    Full document content can make responses extremely large. Use with appropriate limits and only when necessary.
  </Warning>
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="summary" type="string | null" optional>
  **AI-generated document summary**. Only included when `includeSummary=true`. Provides a concise overview of the document.
